Volume integration, definition

As was pointed out earlier. Equation (1.6) allows us to find the attraction field everywhere, but it requires a volume integration, that in general is a rather cumbersome procedure. Fortunately, in many cases the calculation of the field g(p) can be greatly simplified. First, consider an elementary mass with density 6 q), located in the volume AV. Now let us start to increase the density and decrease the volume in such a way that the mass remains the same. By definition, these changes do not make a noticeable influence on the field because the observation point p is far away. In the limit, when... 

By definition, any plane 0 — constant is a plane of symmetry. In other words, there are always two elementary masses, which are equal to each other, and located at opposite sides of this plane but at the same distance. As is seen from Fig. 1.5d, the sum of 0-components, caused by both masses is equal to zero. Representing the total mass as a sum of such pairs we conclude that the 0-component, gg, due to the spherical mass is absent at every point outside and inside the body. In the same manner we can prove that — 0. Of course, volume integration, Equation (1.6), can prove this fact, but this procedure is much more complicated. Thus, the attraction field has only a radial component, g, and the field is directed toward the origin, 0. In order to determine this component we will proceed from Equation (1.26) and consider a spherical surface with radius R, as is shown in Fig. 1.5c. Inasmuch as dS — dSiR and the scalar component g is constant at points of the spherical surface, we have for the flux ...

For the containment the natural discretisation is into interconnected subcompartments (unless a fully three-dimensional treatment is envisaged), as a discussion between experts on CONTAIN and JERICHO emphasised. Each volume may then have sub-databases describing the walls, internal structures, sump, and atmosphere. This last will have its own database including thermal-hydraulic variables plus an aerosols database and so on. The details will become clearer as code integration proceeds, but the overall philosophy is clear. The description for all systems (core, circuit, containment) is to be in terms of volumes, with a well-defined and natural tree structure being imposed on the data describing each volume. Database definitions are now available for the core/bundle, circuit and containment (including iodine chemistry), and are underdevelopment for core-concrete interaction. 

During operation, the filter eake builds up and is periodieally diseharged. The time taken to build up eake ean be estimated by integrating equation 4.87 but first it is neeessary to derive a relationship between eake thiekness and filtrate volume, viz. by definition... 

When we have to deal with charge distributions rather than point charges, the definitions have to be generalized. What we do is to divide continuous charge distributions into differential charge elements /o(r)dr, and then apply the basic formula for the electrostatic field, and so on. Flere, dr is a differential volume element. Finally, we would have to integrate over the coordinates of the charge... 

Autocorrelation Illustration. We choose a shape function Y (r) which describes a particle in 2D space (cf. Fig. 2.4a). Because of the definition of Y (r), T 2 (r) takes the value of the volume which is shared by the particle and its imagined ghost which is displaced by r. In any case the overlap integral becomes maximal for r = 0. Here the correlation is perfect. 

This is the differential definition of the absolute intensity. The total absolute intensity can be deduced by integration from Eq. (7.19) and Eq. (7.20) for any normal transmission geometry. Geometries are discriminated by the shape and size of the irradiated volume, the image of the primary beam in the registration plane17 of the detector, and the dimensions of the detector elements18. 

Concluding, existing definitions use value chain management as alternative term for supply chain management focusing on supply volume decisions to fulfil a given demand and minimize costs. Especially, value and sales decisions are not covered in an integrated framework. 

To continue, an appropriate definition of integrated value chain management has to combine the characteristics of simultaneously managing volumes and values throughout the entire value chain in order to ensure companies profitability. Therefore, value chain management has to be defined in this work. 

As shown above in (6.162), the Lagrangian fluid-particle PDF can be related to the Eulerian velocity, composition PDF by integrating over all initial conditions. As shown below in (6.168), for the Lagrangian notional-particle PDF, the same transformation introduces a weighting factor which involves the PDF of the initial positions y) and the PDF of the current position /x.(x t). If we let V denote a closed volume containing a fixed mass of fluid, then, by definition, x, y e V. The first condition needed to reproduce the Eulerian PDF is that the initial locations be uniform ... 

If now the definitions of the average gas volume-fraction and of the mass-flow rates, Wl and Wq, are written, and Eq. (65) and (66) are substituted in them together with the definition of the quality, x = + Wo), then integration gives...
